JULIUS VON LEYPOLD. Wanderer in the Storm

Wanderer in the Storm. Artist: Julius von Leypold (German, Dresden 1806-1874 Niederlößnitz). Dimensions: 16 3/4 x 22 1/4 in. (42.5 x 56.5 cm). Date: 1835.
The figure of a wanderer in an untamed natural setting personified restless yearning for the German Romantics. Man's loneliness and nature's transience, themes clearly stated in this picture, find direct parallels in the works of the painter Caspar David Friedrich and the composer Franz Schubert, notably his song cycle <i>Die Winterreise</i>, or <i>Winter Journey</i> (1827).
